2 FACTS I. Many schools are seismically deficient 2007 DOGAMI report with seismic scores II. New schools are better but are NOT earthquake proof III. Many schools are energy inefficient Background on earthquakes and schools Examples of school upgrades 2/9/2016 DOGAMI, Y.Wang

3 Late 1980s, Cascadia Fault discovered building code upgrades Earthquake Magnitude 9 (2000)

4 Seismic Building Code Maps 1976 (10% PE in 50 yrs) 1994 (Algermissen & Perkins) %g Zone
